Building solar- and battery-powered cars requires skills in both math and science. The goals of the competition include:
Generating enthusiasm for science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM)
Improving students' understanding of scientific concepts and renewable energy technologies
Encouraging young people to consider technical careers at an early age.
Teams work together to build cars with guidance from a parent, teacher, or coach to compete in race and design categories. A "Spirit Award" is also presented to one team to recognize good sportsmanship.
